Dachshund Rescues Lost Kitten


One very special dachshund, Manfred writes a letter to his brother, Zorro Junior

. . . "Guess what I did? Rescued an orphaned kitten under the back porch. The humans don't usually keep abandoned cats around but I got my way this time. It's my special pet! I discovered him, a grey tabby male, only 6 weeks old, named him "Mike". I carry him around in my mouth like a momma cat. At first Cristie kept him in the bathroom away from us, "until he outgrows my mouth". Now he's 9 weeks old and we PLAY!"  Fred and Mike


Manfred ~ Mike








Sadly, Manfred has recently passed away. He became guardian angel for Mike so he could allways watch over his special friend. Please take a moment to visit Fred's Memorial.

"Sally"




Inspiration

Sally was a survivor of Distemper, which caused her back legs to remain paralyzed most of her life. She used a special 4-wheeled K-9 Cart which provides front support. Her special human, Karen Henry says that despite her physical challenges, Sally was a "normal stubborn Dachshund" with an "indomitable spirit". This photo is proof of her giving "The Look".

Sadly this loved little girl passed away as of July 21, 2001.

Run Free, Sally

Dachsie Shows Gator Who is Boss

Sun Magazine of Boca Raton, Florida 1/10/95



A huge alligator swallowed a plucky dachshund who promptly chewed her way out. The eleven foot gator was found floating belly up in the pond the next day, and Daisy, obviously a lot tougher than she looks, was back pawing at her family's door.

"The dog didn't have a mark on her, since the gator gulped her down whole. At first I really thought she was a ghost," says Melanie Nelson, whose son, Mark, saw the gator snatch Daisy as she chased a ball next to the pond behind their house in the swampy country near Everglades City. But Daisy went straight to her dish and the family knew they had their pet back. "We'd lost dogs to gators before" Melanie recalls. "It's a hazard of living out here. But this is the first one who has ever come back."

She took Daisy to her vet, who explained that if any dog could chew its way out of an alligator, it would be a dachshund. "They are a lot feister than they look," says Nelson. "The vet says they were bred to go down a hole and kill badgers. Also, Daisy didn't need to make too big of a hole to get out. She's very low to the ground."
